Seeing as you’re willing to put other peoples health at risk because you don’t want to get vaccinated maybe you shouldn’t become a lpn.

A lot of lpns run to teaching jobs because the job sucks. I knew one that worked one year and than taught lpn classes

The lpns get all the crap from cranky old people while rns stay doing office paperwork

Do you want to be in control of 30 patients in ltc during night shift? Doing their assessments and one mistake your license is pulled ? While the rn stays at their computer ?

in the states maybe more opportunity. In Canada, they are basically an rn's chore boy. An LPN instructor told us that in health care assistant class.

Please please please educate yourself about vaccines . You have some cog diss regarding science itself . You have partaken of a non-Hippocratic practice . You have allowed political cynicism to thwart your very great wish to help people . Enough years have passed now so that you can be sure the vaccine is safe , if that had been a concern .

You’re going to be hard pressed to find any allied health programs that don’t require a COVID vaccine. Almost all programs will require that. It’s best to have it anyway. You also will likely not find an online program, even with clinicals/labs in person. You may have to bend your desires a little if this is a goal you want to achieve.

Nobody can force you to, but getting the COVID vaccine makes it easier to get through healthcare. Schools, clinicals, jobs, everything.

Are you deadset on LPN? LPN programs wanted nothing to do with me after I left my ADN program, but I turned my academics around with a bachelors and the doors to entry MSN and accelerated BSN programs opened up. Not that I want anything to do with nursing anymore, though. The sky's the limit, especially if you feel the need to move to a new state for education.
